Peanut Butter Protein Bars

Yields7 Servings
Total Time15 mins
Ingredients-
 ¾ cup salted peanut butter
 4 ½ tbsp honey (local preferred)
 2 scoops protein powder (I use Garden of Life Organic Raw Fit Original Protein Powder)
 1 tbsp flaxseed meal (fresh ground preferred)
 1 tbsp chia seeds
 1 tbsp sesame seeds
Recipe:
1

Place flaxseeds in a food processor and process till smooth (See note below on why to grind flaxseeds fresh). Then add peanut butter, honey, and protein powder in a food processor and process till smooth. Add in the chia, and sesame seeds and process till combined. These seeds don’t have hard shells like flaxseeds so they can be left whole and still get digested and absorbed properly. Since this mixture is pretty thick you may need to stop the food processor and stir with a spoon a few time.

2

If you don’t have a food processor, you can use a blender or mix everything in a bowl. Still try to grind your flaxseeds fresh if possible. A coffee grinder or mortar and pestal will work for this. If you absolutely can not grind them fresh, you can use whole seeds, buy flaxseed meal, or leave them out.

3

Once fully mixed divid into seven parts and form into bars. Store in bags or tuperwares in the fridge, serve with a banana or whatever you would like, and enjoy!
